The single that opened the doors for 2D music projects to be taken seriously. The very 1st CD to chart at #1 on Oricon's Weekly Singles Chart.

An iconic CD with one of the most addictive pop tunes by a 2D idol group.

In this unscripted episode, I talk about QUARTET NIGHT's iconic CD "GOD's S.T.A.R".

In this episode let's talk about fans' love for seiyuu and the boundaries that should be respected.

From stalking to spreading rumors, asking seiyuu to apologize for being happy, wishing them to divorce their significant others, and shifting from supporting to actively "hating" seiyuu, there have been plenty of situations in which a simple piece of news ends up becoming hell for seiyuu when it shouldn't.

Now considered a "classic" CD, "BREAK" was the start of an amazing journey filled with accolades and superstar status for Mamoru Miyano.

Overflowing with R&B tunes with an easy listening and groovy sound and already high-quality performances on the vocal end, this was the album that introduced me to male seiyuu music and, ultimately, without it, you wouldn't be listening to this podcast episode today.

In what is another entry of the corner "Let's talk about this CD", you and I talk about Mamoru Miyano's "BREAK".

This is an unscripted episode.

2023 may not have started as well as I expected but hey, it seems the 2nd quarter of the year brought some interesting CDs to the table.

Citypop, funk, and disco have had a big presence and as such, most of the music released in the 2nd quarter is incredibly groovy and danceable, in a way creating the perfect bridge to the summer season we are now in.

How many times have you seen your favorite 2D music projects stopping activities, going on hiatuses or announcing their end?

I can safely say that I've seen that too many times with some of my favorite 2D music projects.

But why don't 2D music projects last longer?

An underrated gem, MEDICODE's self-titled debut CD "MEDICODE" continues to be one of the best showcases of what versatility as a singer or even what being a vocal chameleon means for male seiyuu.

With a young, still unknown, Soma Saito on vocals, the visual-kei band, part of the FlyME Project, was doing unique things in the music industry. From the faux baritone technique to the first time a seiyuu did screamo in a 2D music project and even Saito sounding nothing like himself, this CD is filled with highlights.

In this episode, you and I revisit it and I talk extensively about my passion for it and visual-kei rock music.

Up until 2019, there was a unique unspoken rule that dictated who were the male seiyuu that could have an opportunity to make a solo debut.

For years, only seiyuu with at least 7 years of career as a voice actor could get that golden chance that now can be obtained almost right after making a debut in the voice acting industry.

So why was that happening? Did it make any sense? Who were the seiyuu making debuts following such rule? These and more questions will be answered in this episode.

Do you know that moment when you are listening to a song and an acapella part catches you by surprise? That is a feeling I love a whole lot and over the years, I’ve had my fair share of encounters with such performances, be it on record or in live performances.

With acapella music slowly gaining popularity among fans of 2D music and seiyuu, I feel it is time to share with you some of those moments or performances that made my jaw drop in awe.
